Chapter 2300
The father would usually have to consent if his child were to take after the mother's last name. In most cases, the father might not agree. However, Sebastian Brenand brought this up when the thought didn't even cross Rachel Wood's mind, so she was surprised but understood his reasons behind the suggestion.
She knew it was because he was thoroughly disappointed by his parents and no longer wanted to extend his family's bloodline.
"The Brenand family doesn't deserve a child with its surname or someone as kind as you," Sebastian said. "That's why you must listen to me on this matter."
"Have you thought it through? There's no going back if your parents find out about this," Rachel replied with uncertainty.
"Hah! I never thought about going back," he sneered. "Besides, it's my decision to make. What's wrong with that?"
She refrained from arguing further after seeing how determined he seemed.
"What do you think we should name our child? How about Mandy, if it's a girl? It sounds lovely," he said. “And if it's a boy, we'll name him Moses. It has a more dignified quality to it."
Sebastian had a look of adoration in his eyes when he spoke.
She nodded. “As long as you're happy. Are you sure you don't want our child to take after your last name?"
He nodded firmly. "There's no negotiating this. Listen to me, all right?"
She agreed with a silent nod and didn't say anything else.
In any case, they'd already done everything they could to rebel against his parents. They didn't mind adding another one to the list.
"Okay, good. Do you want to eat anything? The doctor said you should be eating more fruits, especially apples. I'll buy apples for you right now. What do you think?
"You happen to feel nauseous anyway. Eating some apples will help," he said, changing the subject.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Rachel instantly shook her head. "I used to like apples, but I haven't felt that way recently. My appetite might have changed due to the pregnancy.
"I feel so tired now. I don't think I'll
el
eat anything. I'd like to go upstairs for a nap," she added wearily, her head feeling heavy. It made her feel as if she could pass out any second. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
Seeing this, he slowly stood up and picked her up. "All right, I'll take you upstairs for a nap. I'll nap with you."
She nodded. "Honestly, you don't
have to keep carrying me. I can walk on my own. Dr. Harris never said I couldn't walk, but only to be careful. He didn't ask you to treat me as if I can't walk." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
“There's nothing wrong to be a little more cautious. We'll discuss this after the first three months,” he insisted.
“Are you going to make me go through this for three months? Am I not allowed to walk outside at all?” she asked with an incredulous expression on her face.
"Not quite but I'll make sure you rest
more often in bed. I'll also hire the best nannies in town to serve you. You't have everything you need without lifting a finger," he told her. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
"Really, that's not necessary," she objected.
"It is. It is very much so."
